Studs and Duds: Week 2 vs. Washington

[pittstang5]

On Perry,

I'm not questioning his run defense, he's been fine/solid there. I'm just concerned that he hasn't even been close to getting a sack. I guess I'll take solid run defense over Walden.

It would be awesome if there was a sign next to those two that said Pack Scalp the Skins.

I don't think its fair to bitch about edge rushers until we start facing QB's that aren't a homerun threat with their legs. You don't turn Perry loose on those kinds of guys and bull rush has never been his game despite the fact that he looks the part.

+1

I'm expecting a big improvement in the pass rush next week

Is Datone Jones injured or a dud?

he's not looking like Aldon Smith yet, that's for sure

I think PFF mentioned Jones played 18 snaps, 0 pressures. Unless camp was a mirage, his ankle is not where it should be.
If you watch House's sack of RG3 you'll see Nick Perry was a split second away from getting there. All he does is bull rush, and if he adds a couple of moves to that he could do some damage. So far I don't think he's been awful, but he's not lights out either.

What I'm wondering is whether the SF tackled that much better than WAS, or did the GB just have a good day? They did most of their damage after the catch, and it seemed like both WASH & GB's defenses missed a bunch of tackles -- esp. WAS. Haslett has to be shellshocked.

Starks is definitely on the studs list. The KO of Meriweather alone merits that, nevermind running roughshod over the Skins' D. I can't wait for McGinn to talk about how the Redskins lost because London Fletcher is too small.
